Default tps sensor

Anybody out there know where to purchase a new TPS (Throttle Position Sensor) ? One from acura is $709 because you can't purchase just the TPS sensor you have to purchase the throttle body also. They don't sell just the TPS sensor by itself. I can't find any aftermarket company's that make it either. Any suggestions? Oh yeah it is for a 96 Acura Integra RS w/B18B1. I think that it is pretty stupid on Acuras part not to offer just the sensor and I can't believe nobody out there makes a replaceplent. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I don't see why people are so obsessive about new parts. Buy a used one, adjust it with a multimeter, and go. Much cheaper and easier.

Acura doesn't sell them separately because it is very unusual for a Honda TPS to die.
